French Open SFs - Alcaraz toughs out Sinner, Zverev in maiden final, Swiatek-Paolini preview

It actually feels like the French Open... join Joel and Chris as they discuss all the semi final action at Roland Garros including a gruelling, survival of the fittest five set epic from Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner plus Alexander Zverev overcoming an off colour Casper Ruud. On the women's side they discuss Iga Swiatek reaching her fourth final in Paris and just why Coco Gauff struggles so much in their head to head, plus Jasmine Paolini leading the Italian charge by making both the singles and doubles finals in Paris (encroyable!). Elsewhere, the duo discuss Zverev's court case in Berlin reaching a decision, whether Alcaraz-Sinner is this generation's Federer-Nadal rivalry and they preview the singles finals with some of their own predictions.
